The Concubine in the Coffin

Chapter 222 The most indispensable thing in the imperial city is officials
Feng Canglan raised one hand slightly, and a group of people in uniform entered the crowd.

Their footsteps are orderly, and their footsteps are sonorous and powerful. It sounds like they have been practicing martial arts all year round.

Most of the people around are still people, and it is rare to see this battle retreating again and again.

The guards who came up surrounded the old woman's family, and the family huddled together with pale faces.

"I don't want to hear a word from them."

After leaving this sentence, Feng Canglan's indifferent eyes swept around, and turned back to continue looking at the lantern riddle above.

The originally bustling street was instantly silent, but at this moment, even a needle could be heard clearly.

Everyone has realized that this beautiful woman has a good status and is not easy to mess with.

The shopkeeper who hosted the lantern riddle wiped off his cold sweat, and considered taking down the lotus lantern and sending it over.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and everyone held their breaths.

Everyone in the old woman's family was pale and trembling in the surrounding circle.

"I see!" Feng Canglan's eyes lit up, and he suddenly understood.

Pick up a pen and write a word.

The shopkeeper quickly came down, and when he saw the words on it, he quickly lowered the lantern and offered it with both hands, "Congratulations girl, you have guessed the lantern riddle."

The lantern riddle guessers around stretched their necks. At this time, the shopkeeper hung out the written characters in front of everyone, and a character of 'Lotus Root', which was quite strong and somewhat ethereal, suddenly appeared in everyone's sight.

Knowing the answer, there was a commotion around, "Yes, it's lotus root! I didn't even think of it, how stupid!"

"Ah, I didn't think about that at all."

After getting the lotus lantern, Feng Canglan gave it to Zong Zhengyu, "Take it."

He held a lantern in one hand and Feng Canglan in the other. Under the light of the lantern and candles, his clear pupils were dazzling, as if thousands of stars had fallen.

Zong Zhengyu smiled purely and brightly, and Feng Canglan's old mother's compassion emerged, and she touched the top of his head, "Do you like it?"

"I like it." Zong Zhengyu grinned brightly.

Feng Canglan was infected by that smile and couldn't help laughing.

"How dare you surround me!"

"My eldest son is a high official in the imperial city!"

"Be careful, I will ask my son to arrest you, and you will be able to eat or eat at that time."

The old woman's strong voice sounded, and the smile on the corner of Feng Canglan's mouth disappeared instantly.

Honestly, it's disgusting.

What she heard just now was that the old woman drove her son out of the house, learned elsewhere that her son had become an official, and now dragged her family to join him.

Tsk, I don't know which unlucky person will meet such a wonderful family.

"Being a high official in the imperial city?" Feng Canglan smiled, turning all living beings upside down.

He stroked the cumbersomely embroidered skirt, "The most indispensable thing in the imperial city is officials."

"If you find your son who is a high official, I will be waiting anytime!"

After speaking, she pulled Zong Zhengyu and left.

The good mood was ruined by this episode, Feng Canglan didn't have the mood to go on a stroll and went back to the palace.

The guards withdrew, and the old woman's family breathed a sigh of relief.

"The girl just now was born like a vixen. She doesn't belong to a good family at first glance. She must have come out of the Goulan courtyard."

"And the man next to her may be a guest."

The old woman was talking to her second son and granddaughter, her wrinkled face was full of contempt, "Second girl, remember it for me, you will be the daughter of a thousand gold in the future! You must not learn from that vixen."

"Yeah." The woman called Er Yatou secretly looked in the direction Feng Canglan left.

That man was astonishing to the world, his whole body was rich and expensive, even if he was a guest, she would be willing.

"Go find your uncle!"

"But... didn't that old man Li say that Uncle is in the border?"

"There is only one married lady in the house."

"Exactly. In the frontier, the mansion happens to be ours." The old woman said it as a matter of course, and dragged a group of people behind to inquire while walking.

Regent's House
Originally I was in a good mood during the Lantern Festival, but I met a disappointed person when I went out.

After guessing a lantern riddle, I came back and sat in a daze.

Zong Zhengyu looked at Feng Canglan who was sitting on the bed unhappy, approached cautiously, pulled her cuff with an expression of doing something wrong, "Lady, I won't go shopping anymore, don't be angry."

Feng Canglan's thoughts were pulled back, and Zong Zhengyu, who was beside him with a knowing expression, sighed, and said softly, "It has nothing to do with you, and I'm not angry with you."

"Really?" Zong Zhengyu's eyes lit up instantly. If he had a tail, it would be swaying wildly from side to side at this time.

I was amused by the picture I imagined, and my mood improved a lot in an instant, "Really."

"Fufeng is so obedient, how could my lady be angry with you?"

"That's great." Zong Zhengyu hit Feng Canglan with a "boo" on Feng Canglan's face, and smiled even more happily, "It's great that my lady is not angry with me."

"Okay, it's getting late, you should go to bed obediently."

"Grandma Wolf is the child who likes to eat and doesn't like to sleep the most."

The corners of Zong Zhengyu's mouth stiffened slightly, and it disappeared in a flash.

He raised his head and looked not afraid, "I am not afraid of Grandma Wolf with my lady here."

"The lady is amazing. She will protect me."

Zong Zhengyu put his arms around Feng Canglan, rubbing against her chest.

Feng Canglan's face turned red, and she glared at Zong Zhengyu sullenly.

The next moment, she knocked Zong Zhengyu's hand off with one hand, "Touching something randomly, go to bed quickly."

When Feng Canglan slapped, he didn't control his strength well, and used a little force.

The back of Zong Zhengyu's hands turned red, Ruifeng's eyes burst into tears, and she stared at Feng Canglan with accusations, "My lady hit me."

"It was you who hit!"

"Go to sleep." Feng Canglan didn't coax him this time.

Zong Zhengyu saw that acting coquettishly and pretending to be pitiful was ineffective, so he could only lie down and sleep obediently.

"Bang bang."

There was a knock on the door, Feng Canglan looked back and glanced at Zong Zhengyu, pulling the door and leaving.

Seeing Feng Canglan coming out, Hui Yu walked out of the sea, "Miss, the one who hunted us down last time has some clues."

"It should be the one in the palace."

Feng Canglan's Qiushui eyes narrowed deeply, the emperor?
It is really important to send so many first-class killers to kill her, and the ones who returned in the end were all silenced.

"I see." She turned and went back to the bedroom.

Standing in the courtyard, Hui Yu looked at the brightly lit room with ever-changing expressions in his eyes, and finally turned and left.

Back inside, Feng Canglan lay on the bed and meditated.

This thing is very strange.

The time when the assassin came was too strange.

Moreover, the guards in the palace are quite strict. Although those killers are top-notch, how can they reach a drop in the ocean so easily.

It was so weird when those killers came.

At that time, they planned to evacuate with Hui Yu and Yin, but at this time the assassins took advantage of the chaos to kill.

This palace... has a traitor.

Feng Canglan Liu Ye raised her eyebrows lightly, with a sneer on her lips, she rolled over and fell asleep.

The sound of steady breathing spread in the room, and the sleeping Zong Zhengyu slowly opened his eyes, his pupils were dark——
